A fourth-grade teacher in Georgia has become the subject of public ridicule and debate - and inspired the social media hashtag #teacherbae - for a handful of outfits she recently wore in the classroom.

The controversy started when Paris Monroe shared several #OOTD (outfit of the day) posts to her Instagram, proudly showing off a few fitted, "bodycon" dresses. In another shot, Monroe is wearing a tight pair of jeans and a long-sleeved Charlotte Hornets T-shirt. Though none of the outfits come close to revealing an inappropriate amount of skin, they do cling to the teacher's generous curves - and therein lies the problem.
